Dr. Ray was Chairman...

Of the Atomic Energy Commission – later the Department of Energy. She was also my Zoology Professor at University of Washington.

You appear to be seriously misinformed about things scientific – at least regarding radiation, radioactive waste, and nuclear power. Perhaps I can help. For starters, check out these articles: RADIATION—OHMYGOSH! I'M GONNA DIE!, Nuclear Waste and Breeder Reactors - Myth and Promise, A New Look at the Nuclear Energy Option, Chernobyl: Reality and Myth, and Three Mile Island—The System that Worked!

After reading these, please come back here and continue the discussion.

Interesting...
I assume that is the same Dixie Lee Ray that is the former Governor of Washington State and also a leading nuclear power advocate.  So it is sort of odd to see her as an envrionmentalist, considering nuclear wastes lie like a blistering sore all around Richland Washington.  Those radioactive wastes remain dangerous, virtually forever in terms of human lifespans.  Storage of these wastes should be as much a concern as global warming, and probably easier to do something about in the near term.
